I would have to disagree with a lot of the negative comments here. I am a Muslim American who grew up here in the US and have lived a large portion of my life in LA. This show is great because it authentically touches on A LOT of internal conflicts that come with growing up Muslim in America, including dealing with taboo issues like pregnancy before marriage or being in same sex relationship.

Like it or not, there are many practices and teachings of Islam that conflict with American practices and traditions. It doesn't mean that either side is right or wrong here. What the show touches on is how the younger generation struggles with reconciling those two different ways of life, and show also does a great job of showcasing the older generation of siblings, who very clearly are rooted in their traditions and devout Muslims. These are real experiences of muslim women in the US, so I don't understand how this could be considered cultural appropriation or misrepresentation, especially when I have had similar experiences.

Overall, I thought it was fun, entertaining, and really relatable show. I hope they have a second season!!
